An Exciting Weekend
Andrew's birthday weekend started off on Friday afternoon, when I brought cupcakes to school. I don't have any photos to post from it though, because I had to give out the cupcakes with gloves on and well, it didn't make for easy access to the camera in my purse. I did take this one at home Friday night when Andrew got his hands on a special cupcake I bought just for him.
Saturday was exciting as Andrew and I loaded ourselves into the car and traveled to Oak Island Airport for the Big Toy Day.
There was a real version of every little boy's favorite sandbox toys. There were helicopters, airplanes, cement trucks, firetrucks, race cars, tractor trailers, farm machinery, and construction equipment. Andrew was in heaven.
The kids were even allowed to sit in many of the vehicles.
Saturday night Andrew hung out with his Aunt Jenny and Uncle Wells who aren't family but are very close friends. They enjoyed some rides at the beach while Mommy and Daddy attended a friend's wedding.
Sunday was the day of the big Par-tay. Andrew was very excited when the decorations starting going up. He couldn't understand why we were tying balloons to doors and fences and chairs, but it looked great! We set up stations along the yard. Mini-golf, t-ball, sandbox, playset, and bouncy room. The bouncy room was a huge hit!
This little guy at the bottom of the photo is little Jackson. He's a year younger than Andrew and was one of the youngest at the party. By the end, he was in there with the other crazy kiddos!
(Check out Mr. sweaty pants!)
We waited until the other kids left before opening gifts. This age is difficult for explaining that the present is Andrew's!
He had almost forgotten about them and was delighted to rip into the paper after everyone had gone home.
Happy Birthday Andrew!
